About ZAP: Match Cards, Clear Your Hand, Block Opponents

ZAP is an online puzzle card game built around one sharp objective: shed every card from your hand before your opponents do. The competition is fast-paced and direct, with each turn hinging on whether your card matches what came before it by color or by number. One scene shows a thick red circle with a diagonal slash centered over the play area.

How to Play ZAP

The core goal is to empty your hand ahead of every other player. On your turn, play a card that matches the color or number of the card previously placed down. When no playable card sits in your hand, draw from the pile until you find one you are able to use.

Timing matters at the end of a round: when only one card remains in your hand, press the "1" button immediately. Failing to do so results in a punishment of two penalty cards added to your hand.

Controls

• "1" button: Press when you have one card left to avoid a two-card penalty
